Hello
Here we must use the equation of motion
v^2 = u^2 + 2as; where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is the acceleratoin and is the distance travelled.
We select this one because the time of collision is unknown to us.
We know the truck stopped so its final velocity is 0; thus v = 0.
Converting the initial velocity to SI units, we get 3.89 m/s.
The distance traveled, s, is 0.062 meters.
Inserting all of these values into the equation,
0 = (3.89)^2 + 2(a)(0.062)
and solving for a, we get a to be
-122.0 ms^(-2)
The negative sign indicates the acceleration is in the opposite direction to the initial motion, which means the truck decelerated. This is consistent with the given condition.
The Newton is defined as the:
C. Force that can give a 1-kilogram mass an acceleration of 1m/sec squared.

Answer:
Part a)
When spring compressed by 2 cm
H = 1.47 m
Part b)
When spring is compressed by 4 cm
H = 5.94 m
Explanation:
Part a)
As we know that the spring is compressed and released
so here spring potential energy is converted into gravitational potential energy at its maximum height
So we will have
so we have
Part b)
Similarly when spring is compressed by 4 cm
then we have
so we have
A. fixed volume, changeable shape.
